I've seen demonstrations of this where a 1/8" thick by 1' wide and 30 "
long placed between end supports on a long plank. It was fit so it just
slipped in then a business card was slipped in between one of the ends and
the stick bowed right up quite a bit.
I understand your skeptical question. Tomorrow I'll take the same long
rib and make the same kind of jig/fixture and play with and see about the
resistence I'll post Mon. or so with the observation. O.K.
I'm curious too.
